$100? Wow, killer deal.

laundromat? A "year or two" in a laundromat is a lifetime for the average home user.

Wow, really? So based on one video from a disgruntled ex speedqueen dealer (he was treated badly IMO) you use terms like "fairly quickly" and "tendency". It shows you have absolutely no information whatsoever to back up the statements you made. I guess these days, your post would be called...

Other than repeating hearsay, what's your actual knowledge of the following statement? ********************************************** A beg to differ since Speed Queen’s tend to go through belts fairly quickly and the seals and bearings have a tendency to go out as well...

We essentially moved from Tc5 to FR7, not exactly, but same deal, SQ top loader to SQ front loader, just the prior models and even though we really liked our SQ TL we would not go back. We are very happy with the SQ FL and yes, it will do Queen sized bedding with no problems. Hell, people say...

Vinegar? Wouldn't clothes come out smelling like a Fish and Chip shop?

Seemed pretty "buy low, sell high" advice.

Hi Sarah, It is AFNE9BSP113TW01

I just sold my 2015 Speed Queen top loader and replaced it with a 2015 SQ FL set. The impetus was our F&P dryer dying, but we wanted to try a FL, but like you, didn't fancy $4K. So far, we really like them, I never would have bought a 7 year old set if I hadn't already been impressed with how...

It seems like people either love or hate Speed Queen. Tha haters always seem to claim that the SQ FL is a water hog. It's hard for me to see it as I watch clothes flopping around in a barely sodden state vs our old SQ TL where they would be floating around in a near Olympic sized swimming pool...

John, Yes, we see the difference. We went from a SQ TL to a SQ FL and the difference in water consumption is obvious. We would also occasionally get small holes put in some of my wife's delicate clothing, not very often, but it happened. No doubt due to the "vigorous" agitation. I suspect the...

Thank you both. Hmm, interesting. Strange how they make it hard to find, but yet the same data for the Top loader is available online. I think the FL has at minimum two rinse cycles - it can be extended to five. It's hard to believe that 13.68 gallons is used over one wash and two rinse?

Anyone know how much water the Speed Queen front loader uses for each cycle, wash and rinse? I have found a matrix for the top loader, but nothing for the front loader. The manual breaks down the cycle times in minute by minute detail, but not water usage. Just curious.

And the drain hole area looks like this: With the door seal pulled back, No rubber "ring"on the outer tub.

Thanks Jben, Mine is this model:

I was watching a speed queen front load washer review on youtube, having just picked up a 2015 pair myself and noticed that there's an outer tub gasket on his machine that mine seems not to have - visible just above the drain holes. Another difference is mine has many more drain holes than his...

I hope I'm not jinxing it, but after several thorough cleanings of the glass and the rubber seal with CLR (a limescale remover), we've now done two loads with no leaks. Thanks for the advice both of you.

Thanks, I have gone around looking for calcium and treating with CLR where I see it. On the SQ, it's a plastic ring around the door glass that bears on the seal, but I get your message and will give it a go.

Since the gasket looks in good shape, I wondered if the face of the gasket had been pushed further away from vertical over years of use- I don't know HOW vertical the gasket face is supposed to be, but the profile does look tipped back form the vertical. I spent some time manipulating the...

Hi all, I got the idea that I wanted a SQ front loader, we currently have a 2015 model SQ top loader. Well.....I found a 2015 front load pair for what I thought was a fair price and installed them today. I did notice a calcium drip mark at 6 o'clock on the machine which made me worry. And...
